Identifying Criminal Justice Faculty Research Interests Using Voyant and NVivo

Abstract

Inspired by Gao’s text analysis of communication studies faculty, this study looks at the trends from 176 faculty publications from the criminal justice department at the University of Nevada, Reno. Criminal justice faculty publications are missing from library science text analysis literature. This study uses Voyant and NVivo 12 to analyze words and phrases from titles and abstracts to identify research interests. Voyant itself was found to be sufficient and identified specific research trends such as organizational commitment, amber alerts, and death qualification. This study can assist liaison librarians in selecting between these two tools based on their needs.     

The Structuring of Invisibility Among the Hidden Homeless: The Politics of Space, Stigma, and Identity Construction

This ethnographic portrayal relies on participant observations at two supplemental support programs for youth without homes, narratives collected through in-depth interviews with educators and case managers, and focus group interviews with youth participants to explore the discursive (re)production of invisibility among youth without homes. Structuration theory is used to frame macro and micro forces coalescing to enable and constrain processes of invisibility among the hidden homeless. Analysis reveals how invisibility shapes (and is shaped by) processes of stigmatization, “street smarts” as enacted by youth, and “Mayberry” and “not in my backyard” community discourses, and how the disappearance of youth without homes simultaneously serves and undermines various stakeholders.

基于本体的刑事审判案例推理方案研究

构建刑事审判案例推理模型,研究基于历史案例本体知识库对判决结果进行推理的算法。在已构建的刑事审判本体知识库基础上,基于案例特征将决策树、神经网络等算法相结合训练推理模型,预测目标案例的判决结果。实验结果表明：本研究构建的案例推理模型可以较好地对判决类型和刑期进行预测,对审判人员的工作产生积极的数据支撑作用,提升刑事判决领域处理信息的效能。     

论档案行政执法与刑事司法衔接机制的完善

当前我国档案安全领域呈现违法高发而刑罚阙如态势,折射出档案行政执法与刑事司法衔接不畅的现实.造成如此困境,既有档案行政立法与刑事立法不协调、案件移送程序不健全、证据转换困难等客观原因,也有档案主管部门选择性执法、检察机关监督乏力等主观因素.推进档案行政执法与刑事司法的顺畅衔接,较为可行的路径是从实体和程序两个方面共同发力.首先,加强档案法与刑法的实体性衔接,明晰档案违法犯罪的判定标准;其次,优化档案违法犯罪案件移送与承接程序,完善档案行政证据转化及认定规则;最后,拓宽档案行政执法与刑事司法衔接中检察监督信息渠道,创新检察监督方式,提升监督刚性.
